JOLIET -Darlene Senger, candidate for the Illinois 11th Congressional District, continued her district wide Jobs and Business Tour today in Joliet. Throughout the day Senger visited numerous businesses to meet with owners, managers and employees to discuss the local business environment and how to grow jobs and the economy.

"Local businesses are all saying the same thing, taxes and regulations are preventing growth," said Senger. "One business I visited spends 80% of their time complying with government regulations. We need to change things in DC so that we can change things here, where it counts."

As a State Representative, Darlene Senger has earned accolades for her work to hold the line on taxes and promote job creation in Illinois.

Senger launched her Jobs and Business Tour throughout the 11th Congressional District last week in Aurora. In Joliet she met with local food suppliers, restaurateurs, travel agents, merchants, and medical device suppliers. She will continue meeting with local business owners in the district to discuss issues on how to grow the local economy.
